Sand spit and shoreline dynamics near Terekhol river mouth, Goa, India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 2014)
Evolution of shoreline and sand spit at the mouth of the Terekhol River, near Keri beach, located in the Indian state of Goa has been investigated From the analysis of the data collected, the shoreline oscillation (accretion ...
Evidence for the existence of Persian Gulf water and Red Sea water in the Bay of Bengal
(Springer, 2017)
The high-salinity water masses that originate in the North Indian Ocean are Arabian Sea High-Salinity Water (ASHSW), Persian Gulf Water (PGW), and Red Sea Water (RSW). Among them, only ASHSW has been shown to exist in the ...
Tidally-modulated high frequency internal waves in Gautami-Godavari estuary, East coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 2014)
Time series temperature and salinity (at 1 hour interval) and currents data (10 min interval) at surface (3 m) and bottom (14 m), collected in the Gautami-Godavari estuary during 25-27 September 2008 were utilized to ...
Spectral analysis of wind field in the Indian Ocean
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 2014)
To study the variability in wind fields over the Indian Ocean, we used ERA INTERIM daily winds for the period 1979-2012 In order to analyse the temporal variation of wind field, we partitioned the whole Indian Ocean into ...
Can hydrocarbons in coastal sediments be related to terrestrial flux? A case study of Godavari river discharge (Bay of Bengal)
(Current Science Association, 2015)
A sediment core aged ~250 years and deposition rate of ~2.4 mm yr<sup>-1</sup> raised from the coastal region receiving inputs from the Godavari river was examined for n-alkanes The carbon preference index (CPI) of shortchain ...
COHERENS: A hydrodynamic model validated for the west coast of India
(Current Science Association, 2015)
COHERENS (COupled Hydrodynamical and Ecological model for REgioNal and Shelf seas), a 3D hydrodynamic multi-purpose model, has been implemented for the coastal and shelf seas of eastern Arabian Sea to study the flow ...
Impact of shamal winds and swells on the coastal currents along the west coast of India
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 2014)
Wind, wave and current data collected at/off Ratnagiri, west coast of India were analysed to study the wind-wave-current interaction along the west coast of India (WCI) during shamal events Shamal winds which originate in ...
Comparison of ERA-Interim waves with buoy data in the eastern Arabian Sea during high waves
(CSIR-NISCAIR, 2014)
Wave data during extreme conditions is required for planning structures and shipping routes Since the measured wave data is still sparse in the eastern Arabian Sea wave information is mainly derived from wave model dataset ...
